The DRV8770 has flexibility of accepting different kind of inputs on INLx. In the QFN (RGE) package variant, the MODE pin provides option of GLx output inverted or non-inverted compared to polarity of signal on INLx pin. When the MODE pin is left floating, INLx is configured to be in non-inverting mode and GLx output is in phase with INLx (see Figure 7-3). When MODE pin is connected to GVDD, GLx output is out of phase with inputs (see Figure 7-4). The TSSOP (PW) package variant does not have a MODE pin, so the INLx pins are inverted by default.
Table 7-1 shows the states of the gate drivers and FET half bridge when MODE = floating.
INHx | INLx | GHx | GLx | Half Bridge State |
---|---|---|---|---|
0 | 0 | L | L | Z, FETs disabled |
0 | 1 | L | H | L, low-side FET enabled |
1 | 0 | H | L | H, high-side FET enabled |
1 | 1 | L | L | Z, invalid state |
Table 7-2 shows the states of the gate drivers and FET half bridge for the inverted mode (MODE = GVDD or the default mode of the TSSOP package). In this mode, the INHx and INLx pins can be tied together to reduce the number of control signals from a microcontroller, as shown in Table 7-3. In this configuration, the device controls the deadtime as described in Section 7.3.1.1.2.
INHx | INLx | GHx | GLx | Half Bridge State |
---|---|---|---|---|
0 | 0 | L | H | L, low-side FET enabled |
0 | 1 | L | L | Z, FETs disabled |
1 | 0 | L | L | Z, invalid state |
1 | 1 | H | L | H, high-side FET enabled |
INHx = INLx | GHx | GLx | Half Bridge State |
---|---|---|---|
0 | L | H | L, low-side FET enabled |
1 | H | L | H, high-side FET enabled |
